Chapter 222: Naraku is wounded, and the four souls are said

So, Inuyasha skillfully grasped Sesshomaru's self-esteem and discrimination against humans, first mocking it and provoking it, and then attacking with clumsy knife skills to make the opponent take it lightly, and finally seizing the opportunity for the opponent to turn defense into attack and face on, and ended the game with a "wind injury" with all his strength.

Yes, with all his might, without any mercy. Even though Sesshomaru was his only living blood relative, there was absolutely no affection between the two, and it was certain that once Sesshomaru picked up the Iron Broken Tooth with that human left arm, he would definitely kill himself without hesitation.

"In that black light just now, there was an extremely thick dead air. That's ...... The waning moon of the underworld? Kusayaya noticed the power of the saber on Sesshomaru's waist and was silent for a while.

What everyone doesn't know is that there is another mastermind behind today's events.

In the forest a few miles away from the battleground, a voice that was neither yin nor yang sounded: Sesshomaru, that useless thing, couldn't even deal with a single Inuyasha. Looks like we're going to have to plan a little bit next. ”

The speaker, dressed in a white baboon, was covered in shadows, and a poisonous bee landed on the back of his hand, the fiercest victory that Duanmu Hong had found earlier.

As he spoke, a warm wind blew from behind him, carrying a few leaves from the tree. Ye danced with the wind and floated behind the mysterious man, but suddenly turned into a sharp sword and pierced his heart!

The picture turns, and he returns to the city where people see him.

The "Yin Knife" suddenly let out a "wow", spit out a large mouthful of blood with fragments of internal organs, and fell to the ground.

"Young master! What's wrong with you? Seeing that the young master vomited blood in a dignified manner, the master who was serving on the side hurriedly stepped forward in a panic and was about to help the "Yin Knife" up.

"It's fine!"

The "Yin Knife" opened the hand stretched out by the master, held his forehead, clenched his teeth, and looked quite painful, his face, which was originally a little white and unhealthy, became like gold paper at this time.

Looking at the puppet puppet that had been shattered on the windowsill, Naraku's face couldn't help but darken, and he was angry and scared for a while, and said secretly: "Damn! That guy is sneaking up on me? ”

is angry, is it that on weekdays, only you have to sneak attack others, so that turn to get others to sneak attack yourself? What I am afraid of is that my safety is mortally threatened, but I don't even know who the enemy is!

On weekdays, what Naraku is most proud of is not his ever-changing ability to change, nor his ability to recover that is so powerful that ordinary monsters can never match, nor his resourcefulness that is better than most creatures in the demon world, but the ability to hide in the shadows and stir up the storm, but no one can find his ability.

Although he is not particularly powerful, with this skill, even if he offends some strong people, he is not afraid that the other party can really retaliate against him.

However, Shicai's backstab came out of nowhere, but it relied on the connection between the puppet and the body, directly attacking its body, and the inexplicable sharp force, while wantonly destroying his newly found body, suppressed its recovery ability even more.

What's even more terrifying is that this power has poked a hole in Naraku's soul!

The damage to the body is not a big deal for it, even if it suppresses its best self-healing ability, it is not a life-threatening matter, even if the whole body is completely scattered, but as long as the soul is not destroyed, it can cling to a piece of minced flesh to be recovered.

However, even if there is only the slightest damage to the soul, it is not easy to heal, at least at its level, it cannot repair the soul by its own ability.

To put it bluntly, the reason why Naraku has been able to stay at ease in the world for these fifty years is nothing more than bullying most of the monsters in this world and the demon slayer is difficult to effectively kill its soul.

But now it shows that he is no longer safe!

Thinking of this, Naraku couldn't help but feel numb on his scalp, and said secretly:

"After all, the puppet technique has a soul connection with the body, and the distance of control will also be greatly limited, so there must be stronger chess pieces with a smaller connection with the body!"

If this condition is met, for example, the killing pill that was used by it this time, there is no shortage of powerful monsters in the demon world.

But...... The stronger the monster, the more difficult it is to control, and what it needs is a chess piece that is completely controlled by itself and obeys its own orders.

Thinking of this, Naraku repelled the master and attendant who were concerned, took out a large piece of the orb from his bosom, and stared at nothing.

"Who is this man who can approach me silently, and not even the fiercest victories around him notice me to warn me?"

However, Naraku guessed wrong, and the person who made the move actually didn't appear in that forest at all.

A hundred miles away, in the midst of heavy clouds, Duanmuhong put away his Tianyan Shentong and chuckled:

"Naraku, Naraku, you can use the Jade of the Four Souls to repair and strengthen your soul! The more complete the repair and the greater the magnitude of growth, the deeper your fit with the Jade of the Four Souls will be, and the closer it will be to the day when I will use your demonic power for my own use! ”

……

"Oh? It's unexpected! Inuyasha was able to calculate the battle so clearly, should it be said that Shibei was more impressive for three days? ”

After meeting with the group, the two sides recounted their experiences after saying goodbye, and when they heard the performance of Inuyasha's previous battle, Duanmu Hong looked at him strangely, and said secretly: "Why does this painting style seem to be a little wrong?" When did Inuyasha become Master Zuan? ”

Inuyasha looked a little uncomfortable at him, snorted, and asked, "What are you looking at?" Any questions? ”

Duanmuhong shook his head, looked at Maitreya's right hand again, and asked, "Master Maitreya's right hand seems to be wrapped with some kind of ominous meaning, but it is cursed?" ”

Maitreya nodded and smiled bitterly: "Sir's eyes are like torches. When the ancestor struck the demon, he was pierced in the right hand by a youkai named 'Naraku', and since then, this curse has been passed down to me. ”

"Naraku!" As soon as the name was mentioned, Inuyasha gritted his teeth with hatred, slammed his fist on the ground, the anger in his eyes almost condensed into substance, and said in a deep voice: "It's this guy who set up a trick to make me and Kikyo turn against each other!" I'm going to cut him with a thousand knives, and I'm going to crush his bones and scatter them!" ”

Duanmuhong listened, but was slightly surprised in his heart, Inuyasha, who has never been ruthless and resolute, now he even said words such as "a thousand cuts" and "crushing bones and scattering ashes", it seems that he was really taken crooked?

However, he immediately suppressed his distracting thoughts and said, "Inuyasha, did you have a grudge against this guy 'Naraku' in the past?" Inuyasha shook his head and said disapprerovingly: "I don't know at all, the first time I knew that there was a monster with this name, I also heard it from Maitreya." ”

"That's strangeβ€”" Maitreya said with a puzzled look on his face, "since you don't know him at all, why does he want to separate you from Kikyo-sama?" ”

Inuyasha was silent, and this was also the question in his heart. At this time, Kusaya, who was on the side, said: "I heard that the bellflower girl was a witch who took the demon slayer as her mission before her death, perhaps, Naraku designed to frame you because of the relationship between the bellflower girl......"

"Naraku...... ...... bellflower? For some reason, Inuyasha suddenly felt an inexplicable unhappiness in his heart.

Duanmu Hong asked again: "Inuyasha, how many people knew about the agreement to turn you into a human at that time with the power of the Jade of the Four Souls?" Inuyasha thought for a while and said, "Even Old Lady Kaede doesn't know, can Kikyo tell others?" ”

"Looking at it the other way, was the scene you agreed on seen by that Naraku? To be able to hide from the perception of the two of you, it seems that this mouse knows how to hide itself. ”

Duanmuhong showed a hint of playfulness on his face, stroked his chin and thought for a while, and said, "It seems that we have to go back to the village." ”

Inuyasha was puzzled and asked, "What are you going back there for?" ”

Before Duanmu Hong could answer, Maitreya had already said: "Kaede-sama is the younger sister of Kikyo-sama, and she may know something about Naraku." ”

The group rushed back to the village overnight and asked Kaede Shrine Maiden about Naraku.

The Maple Shrine Maiden pondered for a long time and said, "There's one thing I've been thinking about since that day......

After the sneak attacker took the jade, he could have walked away, but in fact, he put the jade back in the shrine and led you to snatch the jade, thus confirming your crime of plotting and killing your sister.

After that, Inuyasha died at the hands of his sister's arrows. You say, is his purpose to make his sister and Inuyasha resentful, or is it ......

Do you want your sister's heart to be tainted by resentment and anger? ”

"What do you mean?" Inuyasha didn't know what to do for a while.

Duanmuhong set his eyes on Maitreya and said, "This has to be asked to Master Maitreya, the name of the treasure jade that caused the dispute is 'Jade of the Four Souls', and the 'Theory of One Spirit and Four Souls' was proposed by one of the master's ancestors, right?" ”

"Sir, he knows these things very well." Maitreya looked surprised and said secretly: "This person and I have only known each other for a short time, how can I be so clear about my family's past?" ”

"One spirit and four souls? What is that? ”

Kusayaya asked curiously. As a medical saint of Shushan, she hears the most about the theory of the soul is "three souls and seven spirits", "yang god and yin god", but "one spirit and four souls" is unheard of.

Maitreya coughed lightly twice, his face was straight, and he said:

"It is said that in ancient times, great gods divided their spirits with all things to create hearts. The basic element of the heart is one spirit. And one spirit is composed of four kinds of souls, which are the desolate soul of bravery, the soul of harmony with relatives, the strange soul of wisdom, and the soul of luck. ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, but the two Taoist masters Duanmuhong and Caogu were noncommittal, secretly comparing the length and weakness of the theory of the four souls and the theory of the three souls and the seven spirits.
